Travel & Accommodation
We’ve done our best to make your travel and accommodation planning as smooth as possible. Here’s all the important information:
FLIGHTS
All guests book their own flights to Athens International Airport – Elefthérios Venizélos (ATH).
This way, you can decide for yourself whether you’d like to:
join us for the full wedding weekend and take part in our group arrangements,
come just for Friday–Sunday,
or extend your stay and enjoy a mini holiday in Greece. 😉
Direct flights from Stockholm Arlanda (ARN)
The most convenient options are SAS, Aegean Airlines, and Norwegian, all of which fly direct between Arlanda and Athens.
Find tickets here:
- SAS – SAS LINK
- Aegean Airlines – AEGEANAIR LINK
- Norwegian – NORWEGIAN LINK
💡 Tip: Want to stay a little longer? Norwegian offers direct flights on Tuesdays and Saturdays. A popular option is Tuesday–Tuesday, which is often very affordable.
OUR GROUP TRANSFER FROM ATHENS TO POROS
We’ve arranged a complimentary group bus transfer between Athens Airport and Poros for all guests who wish to join.
Transfer to Poros
- Departure: Thursday, May 21, around 13:00 from Athens Airport.
- We recommend booking a flight that lands no later than 11:00 to catch the bus.
- The journey takes about 3–3.5 hours, including a short break to stretch your legs.
- The bus has a restroom, and along the way you’ll enjoy scenic views before we take the ferry to Poros.
Return to Athens
- Departure: Sunday, May 24, at 06:00 from Poros.
- Arrival at Athens Airport: around 10:00, in time for most direct flights back to Stockholm.
✅ Don’t forget to mark in your RSVP if you’d like to join the group transfer!
IF YOU PREFER TO ARRANGE YOUR OWN TRAVEL
If you’re not joining the group transfer, you’re welcome to plan your own journey. Two easy options are:
rental car or ferry from Athens (Piraeus).
Rental Car
- Rental cars are easy to book directly at Athens Airport.
- Recommended companies: Europcar, Sixt.
- You can also compare prices via Rentalcars.
- The drive takes about 2.5 hours to the village of Galatas, where a short car ferry crosses to Poros in just minutes.
P.S. If you choose this route, send us a quick message—we’ll share a detailed map and tips for the easiest way to get here. 😉
Ferry from Athens (Piraeus)
- Take the X96 bus directly outside the airport, or a taxi (about 60 minutes) to the port of Piraeus.
- Bus tickets are available from machines outside the airport.
- From Piraeus, take a high-speed ferry to Poros (about 55 minutes).
- Tickets are best booked via FERRYSCANNER or BLUE STAR FERRIES—always choose E-ticket to avoid printing.
- Be sure to check boat schedules carefully, especially for your return trip, to ensure you have enough time for flights and buses.
Quick Travel Guide
- Group Transfer = easiest option (all included, direct from the airport)
- Rental Car = most flexible (perfect if you’d like to explore more of the Peloponnese)
- Ferry = convenient from Athens (great if you want to spend a night in the city)
ACCOMMODATION IN GALATAS & POROS
We will be staying at Xenia Poros Image Hotel, and this will also be the pick-up and drop-off point for group transport during the wedding weekend. The hotel is located by the beach, with a pool and stunning views.
You’re free to choose where you’d like to stay—there are plenty of options, from hotels to Airbnbs. However, we highly recommend staying near us on Poros, as it will make logistics easier and gatherings more convenient.
